520 |a A content analysis identified the issues discussed by 39 advisors (mostly white faculty and administrators) with two cohorts of black freshmen at Towson State University (TSU), Maryland. Advisees were 95 black females and 40 black males in two freshmen classes. Advisors met with each subject at least once every 2 weeks and kept a record of issues discussed. Students completed a "Student Satisfaction Questionnaire" during both fall and spring semesters. Findings indicated that some social issues were not talked about due to student reluctance to initiate these discussions, especially when related to race. Financial aid was also rarely discussed. Topics discussed were grouped into the following categories: registration/scheduling, selection of major and major area advising, course advisement, on/off campus employment, referral to other services on campus, issues surrounding enrollment at TSU, living conditions/personal issues, extracurricular activities, financial questions, retention program issues, and questionnaires and standardized tests. Topics most frequently discussed were course advisement, referral to other services, and registration and scheduling. (DB)
